npx expo-optimize command not working...

[hypercoder457]

Summary

As you can see by the title, npx expo-optimize is failing to work. The error told me to report that as a bug, so here's the full error:

Reproducible demo or steps to reproduce from a blank project

1. expo init test
2. template: blank under the "managed" workflow
3. cd test
4. npx expo-optimize
5. You should see a message like this:

NOTE: in my case, the directory that is not found always changes.

Works for me on macOS. Could it be Windows only issue?

Works for me on macOS. Could it be Windows only issue?

Yes, I believe it is a Windows issue. I have a colleague on the project that uses a mac and he can run it fine. I cannot.

[copelandhouse2]

Not a Windows issue... but an issue with the expo-optimize command on Windows.

hi folks! we are moving away from recommending this CLI tool - I have updated the documentation accordingly: https://docs.expo.dev/guides/assets/#images

we may revisit it one day, but at the moment it's not a high priority for us given that there are plenty of excellent tools for this already.
